Musicals Taught Me Everything I Know
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum with Melissa Crabtree
"It's ironic that Forum delivered such a show-stopping standard in the first five minutes since it has been confirmed by composer-lyricist Stephen Sondheim that his show's songs were meant to give audiences a respite from laughing, as had songs in the theatre of Plautus. While Sondheim is repeatedly critical of Forum's score in his book of annotated lyrics, Finishing the Hat, it has considerable charm, most notably Everybody Ought to Have a Maid, a paean to feminine domestic help, replete with built-in encores."
